as I've lond said LosAngeles is a third world city

[ralph]

and just an article to back me up --- http://www.nytimes.com/2015/07/06/opini ... egion&_r=1 --- I prefer the 'third world he11hole' designation but any variation works for me !! And now they add that the problem is disparity of wealth .

Disparity of wealth?

Yes, we're going for that.

If we have to have people on welfare, food stamps, Obamacare and the rest of it..we want them to be poor..dirty, rotten stinkin' poor.

well , looks like THEY are going for it , not me , I figure that a guy just does the best that he can and continues doing the best that he can . Always worked for my earlier family , parents and me when I started working .

But I thought we only have a homeless problem when a Republican is president.

and on skateboards and in parents basements at 26 and on parents insurance till 26 . I'd rather go homeless than live in my parents basement . Course as homeless I'd at least head to a region that has more people of my background and language . At 16 - 18 a young guy is most likely healthy and halfway strong and could probably find some kinda job .

If you want to see a third world country, go to downtown Brownsville Texas.
